Working Techniques

This page is the list of Motion Graphic Techniques that I've been collecting and studying from different sources through my working period. I'll keep adding more and more techniques for all the programs that I've used professionally like After Effects, Photoshop, Illustrator, Cinema 4D.

Frequency Separation

It's Photoshop technique to retouch the image. This will smooth the uneven skin color but still preserve the texture. Here is the replication of the technique in After Effects and my explanation how this works.

Blend Modes

By knowing how they work, you can choose the right one or when something doesn't look right you know how to fix. Also, It prevents you from unnecessarily stacking all bunch of layers, gradient + color + levels + curves + again + again + + +. From my professional experience, I've seen these so many time.
